Story
Meet Oreo! This sweet little pitbull mix puppy was rescued from an outdoor pen with Hershey and Paisley—but don’t worry, she’s trading that old life in for one filled with snacks, snuggles, and plenty of adventures.Oreo was born around June of 2025, but is expected to weigh about 60lbs fully grown. She is friendly, playful, and full of goofy puppy charm. She can be a little unsure in new situations without her friends, but give her a minute (and maybe a treat), and she’ll be melting into your lap like she was born for it.She does have a front foot that turns outward from an old injury that healed incorrectly—but try telling her that. Oreo has zero interest in being limited. She jumps onto the tops of crates to get a better view (because obviously she’s management), scales the fence to greet new friends, and roughhouses joyfully with Hershey. She’ll need lifetime joint supplements, but she’s living proof that different doesn’t mean less.Oreo is great with kids, loves everyone she meets, but has not been tested with cats.If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, determined little cookie who will fill your home with laughter and love, Oreo is your girl.

Meet Lady – Queen of the Couch, Protector of Kibble, Defender of Squeaky Toys! ????Lady is a 5-year-old Staffordshire mix (possibly part Shar-Pei, possibly part marshmallow, the DNA is inconclusive).

Story
Introducing Vesta! Vesta is an absolutely stunning 11-month-old Boxer/Terrier mix who turns heads wherever she goes. Her sleek, shiny silver coat looks like it was polished, and her striking amber eyes are truly mesmerizing—full of intelligence, warmth, and curiosity. Beyond her beauty, Vesta has a wonderful personality to match. She’s snuggly, affectionate, and hilariously funny, with a charming habit of “talking” to you to let you know exactly what she wants. She has a good bit of happy, youthful energy and would thrive with an active family—she’d make an excellent companion for hikes, runs, adventures, or playtime, then happily curl up for cuddles afterward. Vesta is friendly and does well with kids and other dogs, but she would do best in a cat-free home as her instincts may lead her to chase. She’s crate trained and doing well with house training, and she’s eager to continue learning with her forever family. If you’re looking for a dog who is equal parts gorgeous, affectionate, playful, and full of personality, Vesta may just be your perfect match
